Chapter 1054: 136, just want to be with Yaya [second update]

Back at the hotel, Bo Jinlan went next door to pack his things.

Jian Yaoya initially wanted to help, but he refused her.

After all, there were boundaries between men and women, so she simply lay on the sofa scrolling through her phone.

She mentioned in the group chat that Xu Fenglai had been hospitalized, and soon, her phone rang.

She answered the call, “What’s up, Niaoniao?”

“I went to school today and just saw the message in the group chat. Is Young Master Xu okay?”

“He’s fine; the doctor said it was just ordinary food poisoning. A couple of days on IV fluids and he’ll be good as new.”

“That’s good.”

Jian Yaoya asked her, “Do you still like Young Master Xu?”

“No,” Song Niaoniao hurriedly denied. “I was just concerned, after all…even if I don’t like him anymore, we’re still friends.”

Jian Yaoya nodded.

Everyone had witnessed Xu Fenglai confess to Rong Mu, so she probably should have given up by now.

“So are you still going to intern at his company?”

“No, I’ve already found another internship placement.”

Jian Yaoya felt relieved, “By the way, how’s your mom doing?”

“She’s fine. It’s not her first divorce, so I’m used to it already.”

“Oh.”

Since nothing was wrong, Jian Yaoya simply started chatting with her.

Before long, Bo Jinlan came in carrying a hiking backpack.

“Niaoniao, I have to go, hanging up now.”

Bo Jinlan asked her, “Were you talking to Miss Song?”

“Yeah.”

“What did she say to you?”

“Nothing much.” Jian Yaoya was curious, “Why are you so interested in her?”

Bo Jinlan smiled, “I haven’t seen her talk in the group chat these past few days.”

“She’s been busy after returning to Capital City, what with her having to graduate this year; her thesis and internship are really bothersome.” Jian Yaoya hadn’t thought much about it. “Did you finish packing your stuff?”

“Yeah.” Bo Jinlan approached and began instructing, “I’ll be staying at the hospital tonight. You’ll be alone, so stay safe. Call me if anything happens, or… maybe you should stay at your aunt’s place for the night.”

“No need,” Jian Yaoya was slightly exasperated. “I’m not a child, you don’t need to worry about me.”

“Yeah.” Bo Jinlan raised his hand and brushed the hair from her face.

Every light in the suite was on, making it exceptionally bright.

The man was dressed in a dark cashmere sweater, his eyes dark, his expression warm and calm.

Jian Yaoya suddenly felt her heart race, “You…”

His finger tucked her hair behind her ear, and then his hand stayed there, gently kneading her small, round ear while his deep voice accompanied the motion, “I had no choice, Fenglai suddenly had an emergency, and Mu isn’t here, so I have to take care of him.”

Jian Yaoya swallowed, hesitantly replying, “He’s your friend, it’s only right that you look after him.”

Bo Jinlan fixed his gaze on her, silent.

So Jian Yaoya continued, “He also mentioned earlier that the last time you had acute appendicitis, it was he who took care of you.”

“Yeah.” Bo Jinlan nodded.

Back then, they were both studying finance at Harvard, and the only two people from Capital City in the department, which was why they became friends.

As her ear grew warmer from being rubbed, Jian Yaoya couldn’t help but shrink her neck a little, “Then you better go quickly.”

After speaking, she reached out to push him away.

Unknown to her, Bo Jinlan’s fingers moved down, holding her neck securely, “What’s the rush?”

He lowered his head, leaning in slightly.

A warm breeze brushed her face, his voice low and suggestive, “He’s not a child, and with the caregiver there, I’m not worried.”

Jian Yaoya responded with an “Oh.”

So what?

“I can’t be with you tonight,” Bo Jinlan’s lips were right beside hers, speaking so closely that Jian Yaoya could feel their lips almost touching…

“Yaya, kiss me.”

Jian Yaoya’s heart raced, her delicate fingers slowly climbing up to rest on his shoulders, elevating herself on her toes as she lifted her head.

The moment their lips touched, the man’s fingers on the back of her neck suddenly tightened, and he gripped her waist firmly.

…

In a daze, the two of them gradually moved from standing to sitting on the couch, and then to lying down…

Jian Yaoya closed her eyes, while Bo Jinlan lay on top of her, kissing her, their bodies intertwined and lingering…

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Jian Yaoya snapped back to reality, her eyes foggy as she pushed him, “The phone…”

Bo Jinlan slightly loosened his grip, reaching for the phone, “Hello?”

“Mr. Bo, Master Xu says he needs to use the bathroom.”

Bo Jinlan gritted his teeth, “You help him go.”

“He won’t let me touch him, told me to call you and ask you to come quickly.”

“Got it,” Bo Jinlan said and then hung up.

Jian Yaoya lay on the couch, her lips a bright red, “Is it Master Xu rushing you? Go ahead then.”

Bo Jinlan remained unmoved, “Another kiss.”

He dipped his head, kissing her soft, fragrant lips once more.

Soon enough, the phone rang again.

Jian Yaoya: “…”

Bo Jinlan was even more impatient.

“What is it now?”

“Mr. Bo, your friend suddenly vomited, he says he feels very sick…”

“Did you call a doctor?” Bo Jinlan interrupted.

“We did, but he refused the doctor, he just wants you.”

“… Got it.”

This kid…

Can’t sit still for a minute!

“Is it Master Xu again?” Jian Yaoya couldn’t help but laugh, “Okay, go on then, he surely feels insecure without you.”

Bo Jinlan’s fingers still lingered on her waist, his lips pursed, clearly reluctant.

Jian Yaoya urged, “Go on.”

“I don’t want to leave.” His lips brushed against her warm cheek, his eyes entwining, his voice overtly seductive, “I just want to be with Yaya.”

Jian Yaoya felt her body soften from his seduction, and it took her a while to suppress the flutter in her heart. She said rationally, “The patient is important, I’ll visit you guys at the hospital tomorrow morning.”

“Hmm.” Bo Jinlan bowed his head, pecking at the corner of her lips several times, “Will you be scared sleeping alone at night?”

Jian Yaoya was exasperated, “I always sleep by myself, what’s there to be afraid of?”

Bo Jinlan chuckled softly, his eyes reflecting a scatter of light, growing darker and more profound, “I thought after sleeping with me for two nights, Yaya would feel uncomfortable without me around…”

“You’re thinking too much!” Jian Yaoya pushed him away forcefully with her fingers, and quickly sat up.

Otherwise, who knows how long he would continue to cling…

“Go on, Master Xu needs you.”

Bo Jinlan: “…”

**

VIP Ward.

After the eighth call, Xu Fenglai began pressing for the ninth, “Call him again, tell him I’m about to starve to death, ask when he’s coming?”

The caretaker looked utterly dismayed.

He was here to take care of people, not to be a telephone operator!

Moreover, could he get reimbursed for the phone charges?

He had called several out-of-area numbers just now…

“What are you staring at? Hurry up and call!” Xu Fenglai urged.

There being no choice since he was being paid, the caretaker reluctantly picked up the phone.

As soon as the call connected, the door burst open accompanied by a ringtone that was music to the ears.

The caregiver instantly reacted like they had found a long-lost relative, “Mr. Bo, you finally came!”

Bo Jinlan walked in with a climbing bag, “What’s wrong with him now?”

Xu Fenglai lay on the hospital bed, clutching his stomach with one hand and looking pitiful, “Did you walk back to the hotel? Did it take you two hours to pack just these things?”

Bo Jinlan placed the climbing bag on the table beside him and squinted at him, “Do you also need to use the bathroom?”

“I would have already wet my pants waiting for you,” Xu Fenglai spat angrily, “Hurry up, I’m hungry. Go buy me something to eat.”

The caregiver quickly spoke up, “Mr. Xu, the hospital’s dinner starts at 5:30, just half an hour from now.”

Xu Fenglai: “???”

Did I ask you?

Did I let you speak?

However, Bo Jinlan said, “You just had your stomach washed, and the doctor said you need to fast for 24 hours.”

“24 hours?” Xu Fenglai was shocked, “Are you trying to starve me to death?”

“What time does the hospital serve breakfast tomorrow morning?” Bo Jinlan asked the caregiver.

“7 a.m.”

Bo Jinlan nodded, “Then let’s have it tomorrow morning at 7.”

Xu Fenglai gritted his teeth, “Then at least get me some water now, I’m thirsty.”

The caregiver hurried over with a kettle, “Mr. Bo, there’s water here.”

Bo Jinlan took a cup of water with a thermos and placed it on the bedside table.

Xu Fenglai reached out to drink it and then…

“Damn!”

He hastily set the thermos down and yelled, “Are you trying to scald me to death?”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Xu, I forgot to tell you, I just poured boiling water, it’s very hot…”

Xu Fenglai’s tongue was so burnt he couldn’t speak properly, “Get out, I don’t need you!”

The caregiver looked at someone else, “Mr. Bo…”

Bo Jinlan nodded, “You can go out first, I’ll call you if needed.”

“Okay.”

After the caregiver left, Xu Fenglai was still holding his mouth and pretending to be in agony, “It hurts, it’s killing me…”

There was a click.

Xu Fenglai quickly looked up, “What are you doing?”

Bo Jinlan looked at the photo on his phone, “Just showing Rong Mu your foolish face just now…”

“You dare!” Xu Fenglai attempted to get up to stop him, but couldn’t touch him due to the IV in his hand, “Don’t send it! Asshole! Stop that! Did you hear me?”

Bo Jinlan put down his phone, “Are you going to behave now?”

Xu Fenglai: “…”

This bastard!

He was clearly here to provoke me!

But I’m not someone who gives in so easily either.

“I need to use the bathroom!”

“Didn’t you just go?”

“Can’t I need to go again now?” Xu Fenglai said as he extended his hand, “Hurry up, come help me.”

Bo Jinlan, with his long legs, came over and pressed the nurse call button.

“What are you doing?” Xu Fenglai asked, puzzled.

The nurse quickly entered, “What’s the problem?”

“My friend has a frequent urination issue, but he just had his stomach washed and can’t get out of bed easily. Could you please insert a catheter for him…”

“Bo Jinlan, go screw yourself!” Xu Fenglai was furious to the point of madness.

You just wait, you bastard. Once I’m better…

The first thing I’m doing is learning how to box!

**

The night passed amidst chaos.

The next morning, Bo Jinlan got up quite early.

Soon, he carried in a bowl of white porridge and placed it on the bedside table.

Xu Fenglai looked at the porridge, which resembled plain water, and had no appetite at all, “Can’t you go out and buy me some breakfast? Is this even edible? Does it have any rice grains in it?”

“The doctor said you just had your stomach pumped, so you can’t eat anything spicy. Just eat the hospital food, it’s clean.”

Xu Fenglai: “…”

He stared at the bowl of porridge…

No, it should be called water soup, “Then feed it to me.”

Bo Jinlan disdainfully said, “Eat it yourself.”

“I’m a patient, very weak…”

“Fine.” Bo Jinlan turned around.

He quickly brought in the caregiver from last night, “Could you please feed him this bowl of porridge?”

“Okay.”

The caregiver promptly went forward, sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the white porridge, and held a spoon.

Xu Fenglai: “…”

His handsome face twitched, “No need, I’ll do it myself.”

Bo Jinlan sat on the sofa, with a slight curl of his thin lips.

It wasn’t long before someone knocked on the door.

Jian Yaoya walked in holding a bag, the logo on it sparking Xu Fenglai’s interest.

He immediately set down the white porridge, “Sister-in-law, you’ve come.”

Jian Yaoya smiled as she entered, “Young Master Xu, how are you feeling?”

“Much better.” Xu Fenglai touched his stomach.

After half a bowl of rice porridge, his stomach still felt empty.

“Sister-in-law, what delicious things did you buy?”

“Oh, I bought soy milk, fried dough sticks, sesame balls, crab meat dumplings…”

With each dish she mentioned, Xu Fenglai gulped, “Sister-in-law, you really care for me.”

Jian Yaoya blinked, “Sorry, Bo Jinlan said you can only have porridge now, so these are all for him.”

Xu Fenglai: “…”

Bo Jinlan had already washed his hands and was sitting at the table by the window.

Jian Yaoya opened up the meal boxes, placing each one on the table, “I’ve already eaten, all of this is for you.”

Bo Jinlan smiled, “Join me for some more.”

“I can’t eat anymore.”

“Then just sit with me for a while.”

“Alright.” Jian Yaoya had no choice but to sit down beside him.

The two of them sat there, flaunting their affection as if no one else was around, especially since it was cold and all the windows were shut, which let the aroma of the crab meat dumplings spread unabated throughout the hospital room…

Xu Fenglai, holding the bowl of white porridge, suddenly felt that Jian Yaoya was doing it on purpose…

**

After breakfast, Bo Jinlan cleaned up the trash, “Where would you like to go this afternoon?”

Jian Yaoya hadn’t even responded…

“Dammit! I’m not even well yet, and you’re abandoning your sick friend to go out and have fun, don’t you have a conscience?” Xu Fenglai yelled.

Bo Jinlan eyed him, “Someone will come to take care of you soon.”

“I don’t want it!”

Xu Fenglai wasn’t accustomed to being cared for by a caregiver, especially a male one. The assistance to the restroom yesterday was awkward enough…

Jian Yaoya looked at him, then as they went outside, she couldn’t help but say, “Let’s not go out this afternoon, let’s stay in the hospital with Young Master Xu.”

Bo Jinlan threw the trash into the hospital bin and went to wash his hands clean, “When the person arrives, he’ll send us away.”
